If you need a plumber do you ring a carpenter? You make some ill thought out posts Brian, I will give you that.

Actually, I call a...yes, a plumber.  I don't expect a racist to be any more aware of their racism than a Schizophrenic is aware of their multiple personalities...   Roll Eyes

Schizophrenics dont have multiple personalities Brian, thats an entirely different disorder. Surely an educated man such as yourself would know that simple fact.

I am, I admit.  I am tired.  Been a long day.  Started it at about midnight last night and been on and off the phone all day, fixing computers.  In fact I can now go to bed.

a person with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) most likely would be aware of their multiple personalities, so you are saying a racist would be aware of their racism. Is this correct or do you have another incorrect analogy to offer?

Even if racism is a mental health issue, and there is no evidence it is, people with mental health problems aren't that big of a stigma anymore. People with mental health issues, OCD sufferers, anxiety, irrational phobias, religious people, can all lead productive lives.
